Mike Florio said:If he doesn’t issue a ruling before September 10, that doesn’t mean Brady automatically will miss the regular-season opener against the Steelers. At some point, Brady and the NFL Players Association will ask for a court order preventing the NFL from implementing the suspension until Judge Berman rules.
Absent a modified DeLorean and 1.21 gigawatts, there’s no way to undo a suspension deemed improper after the fact. This means that Judge Berman likely would be inclined to issue and injunction that lets Brady play until he rules.
And if that ruling entails a second hearing conducted with a neutral arbitrator followed by further proceedings before Judge Berman to enforce or vacate the outcome, Brady could play most if not all of the season until the case ends.
If the ruling results in a win for the NFL, there’s also a chance Judge Berman will rule that Brady can play while an appeals court reviews his decision.
